and by whom, and how
did a greater god remove his own rib bone and create god as an image in his own likeness?

We cannot understand eternity or infinity. There is no time in them. Time starts and ends. Something in infinity has always been there. God has always been there. We humans only ask about what we know and cannot accept anything outside the realm of our world. It's an age old question to which there will always be many answers.
God didn't remove His own rib bone He removed Adam's. He couldn't remove His own as He is a Spirit being.

The bible says He was there in the beginning how I know not and no God was not created by a rib bone neither was man but woman was created from man's rib bone... I doubt we would even be able to comprehend God's exsistence if we were told

God was initially created by man. However, as the bible can only state events which happened between 2000 - 4000 years ago, scientific evidence has probably disproved the existence of God. This is due to advances in science, Charles Darwin's evolutionary theory, etc.
Personally, without me sounding too opiniated, my view is is that the bible is a set of rules that condones and sustains the evil forces called capitalism and inequality.

1 Timothy 1:17 - "Now to the King of eternity, incorruptible, invisible, [the] only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen."
Psalm 90:2 - "2 Before the mountains themselves were born,
Or you proceeded to bring forth as with labor pains the earth and the productive land,
Even from time indefinite to time indefinite you are God."
It's very difficult for us to fathom, but God had no beginning. He wasn't created by anything or anyone; he just was and is and will be.

Stacia is correct. Early men used different gods to explain things they didn't understand. Modern science has answered many previously unknown questions and eventually science will disprove the existence of a supreme being or all-seeing God.

You have touched on the principle of eternal progression. God was created the same way we were. As man is, God once was, and as God is, man may become. He had a Father, who had a Father, who had a Father, etc.
P.S. everywhere there is a Father, there is also a Mother.

The present God evolved out of a previous God. It has been happening for millemia.
Before that? Ever heard of adeogenesis - the theological equivalent of abiogenesis?
While the latter was and is one of nature's most becoming little conjouring tricks, the former was and is still to be regarded as one of humanity's most idiotic blunders.

God invented the concepts of "Begining," "Creation," "Birth," and "Conception"
God created time and everything.
God is outside of time and the physical laws of the universe because He created all of them.
God doesn't need a creator, He always existed. He isn't composed of matter or energy...
He is of Spirit...
Many Athiest see this as an excuse to explain it... they call it a paradox.... I call it a completly reasonable explanation.
Belief what you will. God is still there.
God bless you and yours,
